What amazes me about this video is how they just let the race go on and act so nonchalant after car after car go toppling ass-over-teakettle.
Ho-Hum. Just another racer doing six flips in his car. Let’s get him out of the way quick so we can watch the next guy try to flip his car 7 times.
Good times.

These are World Rally Cup cars, with full roll cages, and the drivers are wearing six-point harnesses. They could roll a dozen times without hurting themselves much, and the race would still go on. To put it in perspective, in the 1955 Le Mans 24 hour race—the one known infamously as the “Black Le Mans”—driver Pierre Levegh crashed his Mercedes-Benz 300SLR into the spectator stands and killed 82 people including himself (worst accident ever in motor racing history), but the race still went on to the end. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1955_Le_Mans_disaster
